Sup!Overview
Request and approve leave, track balances, and keep team and public holidays in one place.
The Leave Tracker keeps your team's time off in one place. People request leave from Slack or the dashboard, approvers approve it from a direct message, and Sup! tells the team who's away. It also tracks each person's balance, and the team and public holidays they get.
Open it from Holidays / Leaves in the dashboard's left sidebar.
How leave works
Request from Slack. People open the Sup! app's Home tab and select Create holiday / leave. More on requesting leave.
Approve from Slack. The team's managers get a direct message and select Approve or Reject right there. More on approvals.
The team is told. Sup! announces approved leave in the team's channel, sets the person's Slack status while they're away, and pauses their follow-ups.
Everything is also in the dashboard, under Holidays / Leaves.
How it fits together
- Teams: everyone belongs to one team. A team has its own approvers, leave types, rules, holidays and notification channel. Use the team picker at the top to switch teams.
- Locations: where people are based, for public holidays. Locations are shared by the whole workspace, not tied to a team.
- Managers approve their team's leave and run its settings. They don't have to be in the team.
The tabs
| Tab | What's there |
|---|---|
| Overview | Who's away this week, upcoming holidays, your balance, and requests waiting for you |
| Leaves | Every leave request for the month or year, with filters |
| Approvals | Requests waiting for your decision, and past decisions. Approvers only |

The Leave Tracker is a paid feature. Workspaces on the older Pro plan get team holidays only: personal leave, approvals and balances need a plan that includes leave tracking.
